Well As others have posted I got the Vararam and no template
does anyone have one that they can e-mail or fax me please
Or should I just wing it a cut the shroud a little @ time

I called where I bought it from ( forum vendor) and they said there is no template...and really didn't care to look into it for me well while others seem to love this vendor it was my first and LAST order from them...I will say they said they would look into it and call me but the way they said it I'm not holding my breath

Sorry for the rant I have off tomorrow and wanted to install this thing

If anyone can help me out I'de appredciate it

If you give VARARAM a call and explain your situation they will get a template out to you right away. In the meantime I would remove it from the car but dont attempt to cut it on a guess. Some have tried to cut it in the car and punctured the compressor. Much cost afterwards.
VARARAM has great service and will take care of you pronto. Good luck

The only headache is the impatience and delay. Take your time . Remove the shroud and wait to receive the Template from VARARAM.
You will smile when you drive it after install.

I didn't buy from Vararam itself but I didn't get one either and just kinda guesstimated it. It isn't the BEST install but it serves its purpose and I think looks pretty good and unless you have a very trained eye you wouldn't catch it.

If you want to put it on as bad as I did I'd say go out there and kinda cut a lil off and put the vararam up to it and see how much more needs to come off...

Take your time and I recommend putting either cardboard or a cookie sheet against the coil so you don't cut it or else thats about an $800 fix.

Go HERE for some pictures that will help you decide on your cutting.
